The project management discipline has been developed worldwide through the practice and theories implemented in various types of projects. Prominent organizational bodies have outlined ways to practice project management. This study aims to highlight the differences between standards, guides and methods developed by these bodies and to evaluate their contribution to the project management profession. The differences were discussed through four aspects: approach, life cycle, procurement and stakeholders. Interpretation of the goals and objectives, transparency, accountability and ethics require further deliberation.
